Abstract:
An image processing portion for conducting the specified processing of an image to be reproduced by an image forming portion based on the processed image data is constructed as a single control portion. Consequently, the development of a variety of digital copying machines requires preparation of specially designated control boards according to levels of the products. This makes machines expensive and requires users to pay a considerable initial cost. An image processing device of the present invention is provided with an image information inputting means for inputting image information as a first level image, a main image-processing board for conducting the specified processing of the input image information of the first revel image, a sub image-processing board for conducting the specified processing of the image information processed by the main image processing board and outputting the information as a second level image, and a means for reproducing an image according to the image information processed by the main image-processing board or the sub image-processing board. These boards are independent from each other in the circuit configuration.
Abstract:
A pair of registration rollers are provided upstream in a paper transport path from an image forming position, and a paper transport position detection portion is provided upstream in the paper transport path from the pair of registration rollers. When consecutive print processing on a plurality of sheets of paper is performed, a paper transport position in the paper transport path is detected by the paper transport position detection portion for a sheet of paper that has been set in advance among the plurality of sheets of paper. A correction amount of a position for image writing to a photosensitive drum is determined based on the paper transport position, and correction of the image writing position is performed based on the correction amount. Image forming on the sheet of paper is performed at the image forming position based on the image writing position after correction, and image forming on other sheets of paper after the sheet of paper that was set in advance is performed at the image forming position based on the image writing position after correction.
Abstract:
A paper multi-feed detection apparatus and a paper multi-feed detection method are provided for preventing the detection capability from being deteriorated by a noise factor and improving the detection precision even where an area around the feeding path has no extra space in terms of the shape and there are many noise-generating factors because of a demand for a smaller size of the device. An ultrasonic transmission opening formed in one of two feeding guide plates is large so as to discharge outside a reflected wave which returns through the ultrasonic transmission opening, and an ultrasonic receiving opening formed in the other feeding guide plate is smaller than a receiving face area of a receiver for receiving the ultrasonic wave.
